LET US REMEMBER! 



HE new spring will smile upon a world of peace but not of plenty. It will be America's rare 

 privilege to send to the tragic European shores every ton of foodstuffs possible. Our food- 

 reserves are the hope of the world. Millions have already starved and millions more are starv- 

 ing. We hold a large responsibility, and not in the least degree must we relax our efforts. 



I have just returned from two months spent overseas, and have had an opportunity to come 

 close to the war and to well appreciate just what were the great compelling forces \\ hich cul- 

 minated in the victory. I was in Paris until almost the last days, returning home November 3 by the 

 La Lorraine, the first French Liner to enter New York Harbor with all lights ablaze. From a military 

 point of view, the bravery of Belgium, the valiant French and British armies, the Grand Fleet, the Italian 

 victories, and, finally, America's magnificent effort, were the most important features, but behind all ot 

 these was that God-given fire in the souls of all men and women of these countries, which made it physically 

 impossible for any enemy to conquer. That America, when she did enter the war, played her part man- 

 fully and well was unquestioned, and the gratitude of France and England toward us should establish an 

 immortal bond of friendship. This, however, must be accepted by us most humbly and with a full measure 

 of gratitude for the suffering which those countries endured previous to our entering the war. We must 

 remember, always, the five million men who are gone — men who will never again know Paris moonlight 

 or English roses or blue Italian skies. 



With the remembrance of this noble sacrifice on the part of our Allies and of our own fine men, let us 

 enter the year of reconstruction with a firm determination to help in every way possible toward the 

 rehabilitation of the ruined countries, toward the replenishing of the world's food-reserves, and toward 

 the founding of a permanent peace. We feel confident that Americans will do everything possible 

 toward furthering all of these ends and this with the same spirit of unselfishness that led our boys into 

 the battle — that righteousness and kindness might survive.
